Description
What’s Included
| Component | Description |
| Choose Your Tuner | Select EZ Lynk Auto Agent 3 or SCT BDX. Both support custom tuning for the 2015-2016 Ford 6.7L Powerstroke Pickup platform, with SOTF capability when the correct calibration and switch are installed. |
| Custom Tune Files | Vehicle-specific files recalibrate the engine for the selected off road configuration and allow the truck to operate correctly after the factory DPF, DEF/SCR, and EGR systems are removed. |
| EGR Delete Kit | Includes the block-off components, coolant-routing parts, fittings, gaskets, and hardware required to remove the factory EGR valve and cooler. |
| Exhaust Option | Choose a stainless DPF/CAT Delete Pipe or a complete Exhaust System. Full exhaust configurations connect to the factory downpipe, so a replacement downpipe is not required. |
| Muffler Option | Choose a straight-through No Muffler setup for a more aggressive exhaust note or With Muffler to reduce exterior sound and cabin drone. |
| Installation Instructions | Instructions cover both mechanical installation and the applicable tuner setup procedure. |
Vehicle Compatibility
This 2015-2016 Ford F250, F350, F450 delete kit is engineered for Super Duty pickup models equipped with the 6.7L Powerstroke diesel engine.
- Years: 2015 and 2016
- Engine: Ford 6.7L Powerstroke
- Models: F250, F350, F450 Pickup
- Body style: Pickup
- Not compatible with: Cab & Chassis trucks, which use different exhaust routing and application-specific tuning
Ford changed several EGR and exhaust components across the 6.7L generation, so parts from earlier models should not be assumed to fit a 2015 or 2016 truck.
How Does It Work?
The 2015-2016 6.7 Powerstroke delete kit combines mechanical emissions removal with the electronic tuning required for the modified system. The selected pipe or exhaust removes the restrictive diesel particulate filter and SCR/DEF aftertreatment, while the EGR Delete Kit stops exhaust gas recirculation through the intake.
The tuner then changes the appropriate factory strategies for DPF regeneration, DEF operation, and EGR control. Together, these components provide a complete All-in-One solution rather than requiring separate parts and tuning from different sources.
Features
The 2015, 2016 6.7 Powerstroke delete kit offers two distinct tuning solutions. EZ Lynk Auto Agent 3 uses a smartphone-based platform for flashing, monitoring, diagnostics, file delivery, and remote support. SCT BDX is a dedicated handheld tuner that loads a custom file through the OBD-II port and can also monitor engine data.
Both configurations support SOTF on this Pickup application with the correct switch and calibration. The year-specific EGR kit is designed around the updated 2015-2016 cooler layout and can include stainless hardware together with billet aluminum components depending on the supplied kit revision.
Tuning & Settings
This delete kit for 6.7 Powerstroke supports five confirmed power levels for the 2015-2016 Pickup platform:
| Tuner | Available Power Levels | Tuning Format |
| EZ Lynk Auto Agent 3 | +30 / +60 / +100 / +150 / +200 HP | VIN-specific SOTF tuning |
| SCT BDX | +30 / +60 / +100 / +150 / +200 HP | Custom SOTF file; switch required |
Lower settings provide a more conservative calibration for everyday duty and towing, while the higher levels prioritize performance. Actual horsepower, torque, and boost depend on engine condition, fuel, tire size, drivetrain condition, and other upgrades.
| Characteristic | Typical Result |
| Fuel efficiency | Approximately 5-15% potential improvement under comparable conditions |
| EGT under load | Approximately 100-200°F lower under comparable conditions |
| Throttle response | Quicker response from reduced restriction and revised tuning |
| Towing behavior | Stronger usable power and response; factory towing ratings do not increase |
| DPF regeneration | No factory regeneration cycles after the correct tune and hardware configuration are installed |
These figures are typical ranges, not guaranteed results.
Optional Add-Ons
- EZ Lynk Auto Agent 3 – cloud-based tuning, mobile monitoring, remote file delivery, diagnostics, and SOTF support.
- SCT BDX – handheld custom tuner with monitoring, diagnostics, and supported SOTF functionality.
- DPF/CAT Delete Pipe – the simplest solution when the goal is to remove the factory filter section while retaining more of the existing exhaust.
- 4-Inch Exhaust System – complete downpipe-back upgrade with increased exhaust flow.
- With Muffler – reduces exhaust noise and drone.
- No Muffler – provides a louder, more direct exhaust tone.
Key Benefits
Complete Package – combines tuning, EGR hardware, exhaust components, clamps, fittings, and installation support.
Up to +200 HP – five available calibration levels let the setup match different performance requirements.
Reduced Restriction – removing the particulate filter and aftertreatment system creates a freer exhaust path.
Cleaner Intake – EGR removal prevents soot-filled exhaust gas from being routed through the intake system.
Year-Specific Fitment – this delete kit 6.7 powerstroke uses components engineered specifically for 2015-2016 Pickup models rather than treating every 6.7L generation as interchangeable.
Installation Information
Installation instructions are included. A customer with basic-to-intermediate mechanical skills can perform the upgrade using metric sockets and wrenches, extensions, a torque wrench, penetrating oil, a coolant drain pan, an exhaust sensor socket, and safe lifting equipment.
The correct tune should be successfully installed before emissions hardware is removed. Maintain stable battery voltage during flashing and never interrupt the programming process.
A complete EGR, exhaust, and tuning installation commonly requires approximately 5-8 hours. A simpler Delete Pipe configuration may take less time, while corrosion or limited access around the EGR cooler can extend the job. If coolant-system work or ECU programming is unfamiliar, installation by a diesel shop is recommended.
No More Emissions Codes
Correct tuning prevents warnings specifically associated with the removed emissions systems. Normal diagnostics remain active for unrelated engine, fuel, turbo, transmission, wiring, and sensor problems.
Common DPF, DEF/SCR, and EGR-related DTCs addressed by the supported configuration include:
- EGR: P0401, P0402, P0404, P0405, P0406, P0488
- DPF / exhaust: P0420, P0470-P0474, P2002, P2031, P2033, P242F, P2452, P2453, P2458, P2459, P2463, P246C
- DEF / SCR: P203B, P204F, P205B, P207F, P208A, P20B9, P20BA, P20EE, P229F, P249D
The exact code set depends on factory calibration and which emissions component originally generated the fault.
FAQ
It combines the major mechanical and electronic components in one matched bundle, including year-correct EGR hardware, tuning, and selectable exhaust solutions. That reduces compatibility problems and makes it easier to configure the truck correctly.
EZ Lynk focuses on mobile connectivity, remote support, live data, and cloud-based tune delivery. SCT BDX provides a dedicated handheld interface, custom tune loading, diagnostics, monitoring, and supported SOTF functionality.
Yes. The supported calibrations range from +30 HP to +200 HP. The appropriate setting depends on how the truck is used and the condition of the engine and drivetrain.
Removing regeneration cycles and reducing exhaust restriction can improve efficiency. A gain of roughly 5-15% is possible under comparable conditions, but actual fuel consumption depends heavily on tune level, load, tires, driving style, and engine condition.
Removing DPF, DEF/SCR, and EGR equipment eliminates several emissions-related failure points and reduces soot recirculation. It does not eliminate normal diesel-engine maintenance or guarantee longer engine life.
An experienced DIY owner can perform the work with normal shop equipment and basic mechanical skills. The EGR cooler, coolant routing, exhaust hardware, and electronic tuning are the most involved steps; a professional shop is appropriate if any of those procedures are outside the installer’s experience.

The included guidance removed all guesswork. Even as a beginner, the install felt manageable thanks to the video.
The tune loaded successfully, though I’m now seeing an AdvanceTrac error. Aside from that, performance has been great.
Customer service was outstanding. Compared to other vendors I’ve used, this experience wasn’t even close. Questions were answered quickly after purchase and the results speak for themselves.
Putting this kit together was clearly done by people who know what they’re doing. Everything was well thought out, easy to understand, and simple to install. The added horsepower and fuel savings were immediately noticeable.
